After a few years David moved on from his current position and began working within the family run tyre business working on car and motorcycle tyres, and over the subsequent years worked hard and progressed through the ranks, further bolstering and extending his knowledge which soon led onto him stepping up and becoming the general manager. After many years David then made the choice to step off from his management role and move into engineering role all the while still remaining within his chosen field of experience. After migrating into the world of garage equipment engineering, David quickly capitalised on his experience of equipment used within the tyre trade and made rapid and extensive progress within the company and quickly became the head engineer for large UK national tyre equipment provider.
